A member asked:
I cut from shaving near my vagina. hurt for a few days then went away. but almost a week later i got painful lymph node on my groin. are they related?

Yes: The white blood cells that effectively took care of the "shaving cut" infection has carried the products to the lymph node for destruction. That is why the lymph node is enlarged. Hair removal creams (depilatories) are less traumatic and carry decreased risk for infection in an area replete with sensitive tissues and blood vessels.
